employes of the United States are be
ing trampled upon by you and yoor
subordinates; that common laborers
are placed at machines at reduced
wnzes, and competent machinists are
commanded to instruct them; that be
cause we have organized for our mu
tual help and advancement, we have
incurred your ill will; that through
influence incompetent men are paid
$2.50 per day, while some competent
nqion machinists receive but f2.25;
tbat anion machinists who have long
been in tin employ, and whose
ability is beyond question, have
been reduced in wages for trivial mis
takes, while grievous mistakes of non
union men have passed unnoticed;
tbat the present time card system,
requiring the men to stipulate the
amount of work performed per day,
thus establishing a piece work sys
tem, is odious; tbat bribes, in the
guise of advance in wages, were
offered to men should they establish a
record for fast work; that men are
compelled to work overtime, and on
Sunday, receiving only straight time;
tbat petitions for redress of griev
ances have been ignored; that when
signers of the aforesaid petitions
asked for an advance in wages, you
said you would not raise the wages of
any man who signed those petitions,
thus establishing a black list and de
nying us our constitutional right to
petition for a redress of grievances,
lielng unable longer to endure such
grievances, we do hereby oiler the fol
lowing resolutions:
Resolved 1, That no man who has
not served at least four years at the
trade, and who is not a competent
machinist, shall be allowed to operate
a machine or work a vise.
Resolved 2, That no discrimination
be made against oganized labor.
Resolved 3, That the minimum
wages for machinists shall be $2.50
per day.
Resolved 4, That those receiving
$2.50 per day at the present time, and
those receiving $2,25 per. day, and
who have complied with all rules and
regulations of the civil service, be
raised to $2.75 and $2.60 respect
ively.
Resolved 5, That the above resolu
tion, No. 4, be applied also to those
employed beforo such rules were in
vogue.
Resolved 6, That the men shall not
be required to state on time card the
amount of work done per day.
Resolved 7, That shop rule No. 15
be in parts annulled and the remain
ing rules be modified.
Resolved 8, That all committees
wailing on you for a redress of griev
ances be given respectful audience.
We respectfully submit the above
resolutions, pledging ourselves on our
sacred honor to the performance of
our duty as citizens and machinists.

Rock Island Arsenal, April 3, 1899.
I'ost orders No. 30: 1. x The re
ceipt by the commanding officer of
communications from some of the
employees under theform of petitions,
but actually presenting demands, for
his compliance, makes it evident that
the relation liorne by employes at a
military establishment to their em
ployer, the general government, and
to the government's agent, the com
manding officer, are not fully under
stood by all concerned.
2. The legislative branch of the
government has enacted laws and the
secretary of war has prescribed regu
lations for their execution, which
direct that the com mandin? officer of
an arsenal (under the orders of the
chief of ordnance) shall make and
always receive careful consideration
from the commanding officer.
But until the laws which gdrern the
commanding officer in all his actions
prescribe tbat he shall share with the
employes the executive authority
now reposed alone in him and his
military superiors, he must continue
to exercise that authority under such
instructions as he may receive from
these superiors, but without dicta
tion from employes or from commit
tees representing them.
3. It is the privilege of each em
ploye to accept or decline the work
and compensation offered him; but,
under the laws and regulations now
governing the prosecution of work at
government arsenals, it is not his
right to dictate what foremen or work
men shall be employed, what work
they shall do, or what compensation
they shall receive, what regulations
shall govern concerning records of
work accomplished, or what shop
rules for its orderly and efficient pros
ecution shall be issued.
All tbese are matters pertaining un
der the law to the officers placed in
charge of affairs at this arsenal; they
have been considered and directions
for the government of employes an
nounced by the commanding officer in
official orders, shop regulations or
instructions to assistant officers and
foremen, and these directions, in no
ways unusual, but similar to those in
force at other arsenals, must in the
future, as in years past, be observed
by all workmen employed at this ar
senal. By order of
Maj. Blunt.
T. L. Ames, Lieut. Ord. Dept., U. S.
A., Aet. Adjt.
Maj. Blunt, commenting on the
synopsis of the men's statement pub
lished yesterday, said this morning
that he had never refused to re
ceive a deputation of arsenal work
men or to transmit any statement of
grievances they desired to make to
the proper authorities. But having
been obeying the orders of his super
ior officers for over 30 years, he feels
compelled to continue doing so.
Therefore he cannot raise wages at
the arsenal because that power is not
vested in him; and he cannot discuss
with the employes there the rules
that shall govern their work, for the
government has been fixing those
rules for years, and to give the em
ployes a voice in making them would
be simply the overturning of all pre
cedent aud the inauguration of an
order that does not exist at any other
arsenal, and at very few private work
shops, and tbat would leave the re
sponsible commandant subject to
court martial. Maj. Blunt is also un
able to understand why he is accused
of refusing to pay extra for overtime
and Sunday work, when the bill pro
vining for such extra pay for over
time during the war rush was
turned down bv congress. Very little
Sunday work is being done ' now, and
any attempt by the post commandant
here to draw more than regu'ar pay
for the overtime would simply mean
that his drafts would not be honored.
The press committee' today gave
out the appended statement for publi
cation: "No one regrets the trouble be
tween the commandant and the ma
chinists at the arsenal more than do
tuachinists.themselves. Should Maj.
Blunt have received our committee
Tuesday, which he absolutely refused
to do, there would have been no walk
out. If the government has the right
to appoint a committee of military
officers to investigate and adjust its
grievances with civilians, as was done
in the embalmed beef question, surely
justice demands tbat civilians have
the right to appoint 'a committee of
civilians to investigate and adjust
their grievances with military officers.
Our grievances are not of a spon
taneous but of a slow growth, dating
from the'l rouble of a year ago, when
Capt. Blunt attempted to reduce the
scale of wages. The attempt proved
futile owing to the bold stand of the
men and the aid of officials at Wash
ington. Though defeated at that
time, Maj. Blunt has ever since used
those tactics which have ultimately
brought about the end which he then
had in view. Machinists receiving
$2.50 per day have been removed from
machines and common laborers who
make no pretense of being machinists
put on the machines at $1.50 per day.
These laborers are thereby forced to
attempt to do machinists' work, and,
being incompetent, their work neces
sarily is inferior. This move i.-t not only
disastrous to us as individual ma
chinists, and to the good name of
Rock Island arsenal, but to the gov
ernment of the United States as a
whole. Inferior work must bring
about defective arms. The exercise
of economy in national affairs is good.
But is the differeuce in the wages paid
to the skilled mechanic aud the la
borer sufficient compensation for
running the risk of giving into our
brave soldiers1 hands inferior weapons
with which to meet the enemy on the
field of battle?
